I absolutely love RIT because of the access to opportunities and resources that I hadn't seen at other colleges, along with the sense of community and belonging I felt the second I stepped on campus. It's this sense of community that is also one of my favorite things about COLA, the feel of a small inter-knit community within a larger, resourceful campus. It really give you the ability to explore new concepts and skills, meet people from all sorts of backgrounds, and dive into a new area while having the safety and familiarity of the Liberal Arts community behind you. 

My favorite part of RIT is how widespread and broad the entire university is, which makes COLA all the better since you are able to take classes in multiple colleges and have a more specialized and unique experience. You are able to meet so many different people with different skill sets and interests from different majors and colleges while taking your classes. Being able to branch out into different areas of the college really lets you take full advantage of all that RIT has to offer students. COLA has some of the more exciting classes you can take, make sure to look out!

My favorite thing about COLA is how connected everyone is. A lot of the COLA faculty make strong connections with students that make students feel welcomed. I also love that RIT is a big school because it is easier to find a niche group of people that you fit in with and there are also more resources. RIT has a great sense of community— I always feel welcome wherever I go and feel at home while I am on campus.
